So, somehow, you will need to include more of the person blowing the bubbles while still showing the "Nocti" glowing balls. This may have to be more of a set up shot or you will have to gain the trust of the persons blowing the bubbles. To overcome the bright lights behind your subject you will either have to shoot from the lighted side for fill or provide some kind of fill from the dark side. Fill flash would be easy but not really artistic and screams "taking pictures here". It is possible that with the Noct. you could have a large friend wearing white stand so there is some fill which would let you get more detail in the faces. Any possibility of using car lights or a flashlight? As usual with this sort of comment, let your personal artistic desire lead you and if the above is not at all where you wanted to go then the delete key works real well.
